Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 14631a
"سَأَلْتُ الله يَا عَلى فِيكَ خَمْسًا: فَمنعنى واحدةً، وأَعْطَانى أَرْبعًا: سأَلتُ اللهَ أَنْ يَجمع عَلَيْكَ أُمَّتى، فَأَبَى عَلَىَّ، وأَعطانى فيك أَن أَول مَن تَنْشق عنه الأَرض يومَ القِيَامةِ أَنَا وأَنت مَعِى، مَعَكَ لِواءُ الحمدِ وأَنت تَحمِلُه بين يدىَّ؛ تَسْبِقُ به الأَولين والآخرين، وأَعطانى أنك ولى المؤمنين بعدى".

"I asked Allah, O ʿAlī, for five things concerning you: He withheld one from me and gave me four. I asked Allah to unite my Ummah around you, but He refused me. And He gave me, concerning you, that the first of those from whom the earth will split open on the Day of Resurrection will be I, and you will be with me; with you will be the banner of praise, and you will carry it in front of me; with it you will precede the first and the last. And He gave me that you are the guardian (walī) of the believers after me."
